Support for splitting individual strings #95

Closed PiKeyAr closed 6 months ago

PiKeyAr commented 4 years ago

I've been trying to add several items to splitsadx.ini (particularly the stuff mentioned in #25), but I'm unable to because SA Tools currently doesn't seem to support splitting individual strings or string lists. Using the stringarray category doesn't work for string pointer arrays (such as the character unlock message list at 0x516968/0x916968. Judging by other stringarray items in the INI that do work, I think it's because the tool expects a zero after each string in these arrays. masterstringlist added recently for SA2 doesn't seem to work either. I guess a new category is necessary for these strings to work?

I think the problem with the unlock messages is that they're all different languages. We'd have to invent a new data type specifically for that use case. I can also add support for splitting individual strings.

Implemented both single and multi language strings.
